Was ist falsch an der Arbeitswerttheorie? Wie Wert wirklich gebildet wird

Lippert, Rainer (2019): Was ist falsch an der Arbeitswerttheorie? Wie Wert wirklich gebildet wird.

Abstract

In this article it is shown that the labor value theory according to Marx is flawed in a central aspect: Neither the surplus value nor the value is produced. Value is a social relationship that is formed on the social level between exchange partners. Potential goods are produced as reference points for possible value relationships. They are shaped by manpower, machine and nature. On this basis, the description of value formation deviates from the classical interpretation of labor theory, and the value is no longer perceived as a subjective singularity (as a generated "work value", that can only be an expectation value) but as a real relationship between humans.
